| Elbow are to appear at the 'Children In Need Rocks' gig at the Manchester MEN Arena on Thursday November 17th. It's only a two hour show featuring loads of other bands so I guess the set will only be a couple of songs, but it's an opportunity for hardcore fans to see their favourite band in their home town and help raise some money for a great charity. | |

| Got really excited when i heard that they were doing this, but on seeing the prices, Im not too sure that I can justify paying £55 at least (before booking fees and the like), just for maybe a couple of songs(even though its for a brilliant charity).......and having to endure NDubz and JLS! But im seeing Friendly Fires the same night, so cant go.

| Given that Elbow's set will only be short I've decided I'd rather donate the price of a ticket to the charity than have to listen to the likes of Chris Moyles and Fearne Cotton. Maybe I should set up a fund raiser where people donate money for CM & FC not to appear? I'd pay a huge amount to never have to listen to those two idiots. Who on earth decided that it was a good idea to employ DJ's who are only interested in self promotion & have no real interest in music?

| Oof, that's steep. I was wavering about whether to try for tickets or not, given that I'm desperately low on holiday to take from work, but the ticket price decided it for me. EDIT: Mind you, I did donate £100 to the Teenage Cancer Trust as part of a prize draw (£10 per entry) to win choir seats for Muse at Royal Albert Hall... and worth every penny it was, getting to ogle Matt Bellamy's rear end the entire night. | |

| Got a friend who booked 4 of the cheapest tickets for this gig. The tickets are VAT exempt but the ticket fees are not. She paid £8 per ticket in aditional fees. They should be made to donate every penny of that £32 to charity. | |
